Ice Candy

When summer comes I remember those childhood days that I would hurriedly collect coins from my parents cabinet to buy my favorite thirst quenching summer snack: Ice-candy. Whatever is the flavor, there will always be a magic in store in everybite of it. A truly refreshing means to beat the heat of the summer! We did had a refrigerator at home so most of the time we are just buying it from the neighbor. So when the day comes, my uncle sold us their old refrigerator, it was ice-candy everyday. Making this is fun and easy. You can make your kids help you in preparing this. You can use your fruit drinks or be creative in using other flavors. The following recipes calls for simple fruit drink based ice-candies to more elaborate flavors.

And you, what is the flavor of your favorite ice-candy?

for Ice-cream like Ice Candy

1 kilo of fruit (mango/langka/avocado/etc)

1 big can of condensed milk

half a cup of water

you can add some yabu or cassava flour (1 tablespoon)

Choose well ripe mangoes for this recipe. Scoop them and make a purée using your blender. Then dissolve your cassava flour and water and pour this on your mango purée. Add one can of condensed milk. Continue blending until well mix. Laddle this mango mixture in your ice-candy plastic bags and freeze.

You put “yabu” on it. It’s a starchy white powder mixed in a boiling water. This boiled water with yabu is then cooled until you can put your desired ingredients. This will make your candy creamy like an iced cream.

can someone please give me your cremiest ice candy ever????????
please include all the ingredients as well as the procedures and most
especially the tip on how to make my ice candy creamy..by the way,where
exactly to buy the yabo?

@Rowie I’ve seen some yabu or cassava cornstarch on supermarkets like Cash and Carry. If not, you can probably find them on some vegetarian stores because I think vegetarians use them for cooking filipino dishes that requires the texture of pork fat. Goodluck.

engaging in any business requires a thorough understanding of the market and the demand. It is hard to give an exact amount of the ingredients for making ice candy as prices tend to vary. I suggest to make flavors based on the fruits in season, that way there are much cheaper. Try first to make experiments in your kitchen; prepare small batches of ice candy that your friends and family can taste. Use the recipe posted here as a base but you can modify it depending on your own ingredients of your choice. goodluck!
